Daniel, you might want to described the network topology.
Is it a single ethernet with one hub?
People seem to be using 'hub' and 'switch' mutually exclusively, which may
be confusing. 'switch' is short for 'port-switching hub'.
See http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/S/switching_hub.html
The definition should make the problem clear. Hosts on a switching bug
dont see passing traffic.
